Enhance your JavaScript-fu with LowPro

During RailsConf 2007 I had the pleasure to have a beer with Dan Webb at the Rails Machine hangout. It was cool to talk all about JavaScript (one of my interests) as it relates to Rails.
It was interesting to find out that Rails is not quite adopting the “unobtrusive way” completely. Just look at how the link_to_remote JavaScript code is generated; it mixes content with JS code.
I’m hoping that as Rails gets betetr and better, it will also support better graceful degradation for JavaScript. For now, Dan’s awesome library a.k.a Low Pro should help us all become true JavaScript-fu disciples.
Talk about navigating through the DOM with ninja-like swiftness! :)
